About the Movie

The Haunting in Connecticut is a 2009 American psychological horror film produced by Gold Circle Films and directed by Peter Cornwell. It is supposedly based on the “true story” of Carmen Snedeker as portrayed by the author Ray Garton in the book In a Dark Place: The Story of a True Haunting (1992). The film’s story follows the fictional Campbells as they move into a house (a former mortuary) to mitigate the strains of travel on their cancer-stricken son, Matthew. The family soon becomes haunted by violent and traumatic events from supernatural forces occupying the house.

The Haunting in Connecticut was a moderately successful film, grossing $76,501,870, and received “generally unfavorable reviews” according to Metacritic. Gold Circle Films has announced the production of two more entries in the franchise, The Haunting in Georgia and The Haunting in New York but noted that neither film would be a direct sequel to “Haunting in Connecticut” and will instead be self-contained films with unique characters.
